Simplified Veggie Burger

We want everyone to be able to enjoy a good summer BBQ, so here’s a fun recipe idea for our friends who don’t eat meat to make your summers a little tastier!

What should I serve this with?

So, if you’re wanting to keep things simple, just serve with our Ciabatta Buns and Sweet Potato Fries! But, if you’re going all out for your BBQ, we like to break out the trust Hot Dog (#1634), Cream Cheese Stuffed Jalapenos (#1272), and Onion Rings (#1269). Plus, you can’t forget the drinks! For a kid-friendly option, keep our Mott’s Apple Juice (#1082) and Fruit Punch (#1083) on hand.

Simplified Veggie Burgers

Ingredients: 

• 3 cups frozen edamame
• 1 1/2-2 cups frozen peas and carrots (can substitute 5 way veggies #1493)
• 2/3 cup oat flour, Wheat germ or breadcrumbs (#1193) (or a mixture of these, if you use a total of 2/3 cup)
• 3 eggs, slightly beaten
• 2 heaping tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tsp paprika (#1697)
• 2 tsp hamburger seasoning (can substitute Montreal steak seasoning #1023)
• 1 tsp kosher salt (#1147)
• ½ tsp black pepper (#1029)
• 1 tbsp olive oil, for cooking (can substitute 1 tbsp avocado oil #3515) 
• ½ cup of Cooked Brown Rice (optional)

Instructions:

1. To begin, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a small handful of salt and add the frozen edamame. Cook for 5 minutes, then add the frozen peas and carrots mix. Cook for an additional minute.
2. Then, drain the veggies and place in a food processor. Process until broken down but still a little chunky. Let cool slightly.
3. Meanwhile, add the remaining ingredients (except for the olive oil) to a large bowl. Once slightly cooled, add the veggie mix and stir to combine.
4. Next, wet your hands with a bit of water and form the mixture into 6 large patties. Place on a plate lined with wax paper and put in the fridge for at least an hour – up to all day – or in the freezer for 20-30 minutes. (See notes.)
5. Now, when ready to cook the burgers, remove them from the fridge or freezer. Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add burger patties and cook 10-12 minutes, turning once. Be careful when flipping them over – you want the patties to stay together. If your patties are browning too quickly, you can reduce the heat to medium-low. 
6. Remove, serve on whole wheat buns or in a wrap with your favorites burger toppings – lettuce, tomato, cheese, mustard, ketchup, etc. Enjoy!
